This is another card I designed for my Christmas card stamp a stack. I was experimenting at the last minute and shadow stamped the greeting with Early Espresso. That was an experiment gone bad. LOL. I think if I had stamped it with Garden Green again, it might have been nice. I was too lazy to do it over so this is what you get. We laughed and said maybe 3-d glasses or 3 glasses of wine might have helped. Dazzling Diamonds are all over the greenery. I think you can see it if you click on the image to enlarge it.

This is a card I designed for my Christmas Card Class this past Friday night. You can't really see the Dazzling Details in the center of the poinsettias but they are pretty and glittery. The stamp sets are Delightful Dozen and Watercolor Winter. I used a retired brad but I reserve the right to do that in my Christmas stamp a stacks.

I made this card for a friend last month when she lost her mother. I wanted something simple and to the heart. Baja Breeze and Basic Black cs and ink. Whisper White cs. I love this stamp set. Have I said that before?

The Love & Sympathy stamp set is one of my most favorite Stampin' Up! sets (I know, they're all my favs, LOL). It has a beautiful sentiment when you're wanting to express sympathy and it has a fabulous flower that is so versatile for any occasion. Here I decided to make it into a birthday card. My stamp camp stampers loved it. We used a new in-color Primrose Petals. The birthday sentiment is from Bring on the Cake set.
